DIY Ellsworth Kelly Painting.
My plan to create a million-dollar pair of "Ellsworth Kellys" to hang above the sofa in my den using two 48" by 24" gallery wrapped canvases, a pint of Liquitex professional acrylic paints, and a roll of Frog Tape masking tape.

I painted the 48" by 24" gallery wrapped canvas with white acrylic paint, then I taped in 21 three inch squares with green Frog Tape masking tape. Next I will paint the untapped areas with phtalo blue paint straight out of the tube. I think I will have only one painting, oriented horizontally, rather than two oriented vertically.
